XII should be your answer.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the width of the yard x and the length x + 3½. Since we know that perimeter = 2 * (width + length) and that the perimeter must be 26 we can write:
2 * (x + x + 3½) = 26
x + x + 3½ = 13
2x + 3½ = 13
2x = 9½
x = 4
Answer:
She swam a total distance of 2 1/4 miles in those three days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so- The first thing you need to do is make all denominators equal to make these fractions able to be added together. So, I made all denominators 12. (Tell me if you don't know how to make them all the same denominator, and I'll be happy to help!)
<u>2/3 = 8/12 </u>
<u>3/4 = 9/12 </u>
<u>5/6 = 10/12</u>
Then, I added the numerators together. Like this:
<u>8 + 9 + 10 = 27 </u>
So, this would be:
<u>27/12</u>
Lastly, I changed this improper fraction to a mixed number. I multiplied the denominator twice because it looked like it would be closest to 27 without going over.
<u>12 * 2 = 24 </u>
<em>The "2" will be the whole number in the mixed fraction.</em> Now, I'm going to subtract 24 from the numerator.
<u>27 - 24 = 3 </u>
<u>2 3/12</u>
After simplified, the fraction will be:
2 1/4
